The incident was allegedly caused by “significant turbulence”, which according to the complaint had not been reported in advance by the flight attendants.

He who doesn't try anything gets nothing. An American woman is suing the airline EgyptAir, demanding a whopping $5 million (4.7 million euros) from it, after an unfortunate flight incident. The newspaper New York Post reported on the case this weekend, which occurred following a flight from New York to Cairo, Egypt, on February 18.

During this flight, the 35-year-old woman, Esraa Hezain, reportedly suffered “burns” after a “cup of tea without lid” flew off its seat tablet, judged “defective”according to documents from the Brooklyn federal court consulted by the American newspaper. An incident allegedly caused by “significant turbulence”indicates the complaint, deploring that the crew of the device “did not suspend service before the turbulence or issue a warning about the impending turbulence”.

Additionally, the plaintiff, who lives in the Manhattan neighborhood of New York, claims that several seatback tablets on the plane – including hers – were in a “advanced state of disrepair”. She reports having been “seriously” injured. His lawyer, Abram Bohrer, told the New York Post that she had suffered second-degree burns to her lower abdomen, the inside of her right thigh and her buttocks. “For the price of a lid, this shouldn’t have happened”he regretted.
